The role of Staphylococcus aureus in cystic fibrosis pathogenesis and clinico-microbiological interactions.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a progressive and inherited disease that affects approximately 70000 individuals all over the world annually. A mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene serves as its defining feature. Bacterial infections have a significant impact on the occurrence and development of CF.
